Some Middleham Cottages

Middleham is a small but bustling North Yorkshire settlement; its population below 1,000 at the last census making it seem more like a village than a market town. But Middleham is a place of some distinction, with the remains of one of Englandâ€™s finest castles dominating the view and horseracing dominating the life of the place. Probably settled in Roman times, Middleham occupies a strategic spot where the road west across the country from Ripon could be monitored. Bolton Castle a few miles west of Middleham served the same function, though as Middleham sits on the banks of the River Ure it was doubly important in those days.
